Speaker 1 (00:00):
Whoa, Oh, we got Rick Flair up in here. Well, yeah,
it's a I guess mine's a hybrid between Rick Flair
and some of the Sammy Hagar lyrics. I suppose you
know the Sammi van Hagar lyrics. I suppose, uh, man,
I it's it's a nice summer afternoon outside in October.

(00:22):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
When I went to go get our lunch, man, I
had the windows down and the music cranking, and it was.
It was nice, brother, it was. It was really nice.
And I don't know what I think you and I
bowed today absolutely just hit the slot on our lunch because,
uh win to Wendy's. Uh you got the Chicken Classic

(00:45):
Chicken sandwich. Yes, I got a small chili and a
baked potato.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
And I heard you moaning and oh my gosh, this
is so good. Oh yeah, that sandwich was.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
But this is as satisfying of a chili and baked
potato as I've ever had from Wendy's. Just it just
hit today and it's like, oh satisfied.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
I'm full, I'm good, I'm ready, I'm energetic. Let's do this.
I don't remember the last time I had a Wendy's
chicken sandwich. It's been a long time, long long time,
and the last time I had it it was it
was okay. And look in the chicken sandwich fight, there
is stiff competition for Wendy's. Wendy's used to have kind

(01:24):
of the corner on that.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
I feel why Chicken was like the number one selling
chicken sandwich in the country for a long long time.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, I feel like they smoked McDonald's on the chicken sandwich.
McDonald's has never had good chicken sandwich, correct, so they
had the kind of the corner on that for a while.
Then you know Chick fil A, which has been around
for a little while. Gosh, man, their sandwich is redic.
Then Popeyes their chicken sandwiches took it to a whole

(01:54):
and then you know, KFC stepped up their chicken sandwich game.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
You know, KSC was like, you would think the original
chicken restaurant would be the one to like get that
right then you're looking good. But I'll tell you what
that the new chicken sandwich they have is legit right now,
that is a legit good sandwich.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
There's a lot of the crunchy kind of breading. It's
this big monster of a sandwich. But when you get
down to the chicken in there, Now, I like all
of that around it. I love all the crunch and
I'm a texture guy, so I like that. Yeah. You know,
clearly it's not healthy for you. It's not awaking one
day to you approve maintenance. You're allowed to have a spoil. Yeah,

(02:37):
and you know yeah, so that's uh those are so yeah.
You were like, yeah, I'm going to and I'm like, uh,
you were so kind of grab me one while you're there. Again, Man,
I haven't had one in a while. And I was like,
whoo it was brick flair good? It was man? Was
it macha man? Like? Oh, this is the chicken sandwich?

(02:59):
Is the great in raisings to the top? Yell, whil
that's good. I like it. It's macho man good. Then okay, absolutely, man.
Jackets in action tonight versus the Leaf. So I'm gonna
be in the house going to the game tonight. So
I am fired up to see if the Jackets can

(03:20):
good season tickets. I mean, my lord, I actually did
you did? Actually? Okay, you did. I didn't know that. Wow,
I bought a partial season. Good for you, Bud. Yeah,
I did it. I took the plunge. I did it. So, yeah,
Josie's coming down here. She's gonna go with me because
I got two. I didn't get four tickets for the
season because good lord, I'm not rich, so and that's

(03:43):
pretty stiff. If you want to get four of them,
it's an investment. But anyway, she's coming down, gonna go
with me. This is the first one on my schedule
for my season tickets because I got partial.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Season right right, because the opening night was McCoy took
to you right Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah. Manager here in the building was like, hey, you
know invited me. I was like, yeah, he's got he's
got he's got the hook up. Man, He's connected to everything.
He gets you Metallica stuff. I mean you go to
have actually most of your concerts because he's figuring.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
Almost like literally all my cut like Stone Tumble Pilots.
I didn't cause anything Metallica Detroit.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Man. I'm not allowed to say this, but I'm just no.
It's one of It's the one perk I get. And
being in radio is like this guy. He McCoy is dude.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
He knows every record executive, label producer, guy in the planet,
I think.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, for sure. So it's like, yeah, why.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Not take advantage of when you got you.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Know, yeah, it was a house like that, right. It
was amazing being there in them, honoring Johnny Gudreau and
his you know, his wife there and their kids on
the ice.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Sad, but also like it was amazing, amazing, It really was.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
It was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
You know.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Good Branson ended up having shoulder surgery today. I saw, man,
I just you know, we don't have boone for a while.
I mean, the injuries, it's so silly. That was friendly fire,
by the way, with good Brandson. He had running into
one of one of his own guys. It was really bizarre. Man.

(05:20):
It was yeah, well have fun tonight and you and
your daughter. Thanks man. Yeah, it'll be it should be good.
And I'm maintaining that possibly if the Jackets end up
doing well and we get into the postseason, I'm going
to try to say, well, it was because that I
ended up being a partial season ticket holder for the
first time, and I was the difference. I'm sticking to this.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Extra Blazer cash that kicked the organization into overdrive.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
I'm sticking to it. I'm sticking to it. Trump extending
the betting lead amid the uh you know, Democrats questioning
his age, and you know, it is so funny to
watch them right now. They are scrambling bita. Money's coming

(06:08):
in on Trump.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
And I think densh De Susan when we interviewed him
on Friday, and if you miss that, he's the guy
who put out a documentary in a book called Vindicating
Trump two thousand Mules, two thousand Mules.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
It's now streaming, uh Vindicating Trump dot com. Yep, yep.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
But Danessha Susan said, I don't put stock in the polls.
I put stock into the money because the money is
where it matters, and the money is breaking heavily, heavily
towards Trump.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
So odds Checker has Trump right now at my going
off at minus one fifty three, Kamala at plus one
point fifty. These are all these different betting sites. This
is crazy, man. I hadn't actually looked at any kind
of length at this. A betting site often touted by

(06:59):
billionaire Trump supporter Elon Musk has gone from posting roughly
even odds to you know, just two weeks ago, to
giving Trump a sixty two percent chance and Harris at
thirty eight percent chance. Now, I love that they are
and I was reading that clearly, but I love that.
You know, Elon Musk they have to put he's a

(07:20):
Trump supporter. Now kind of setting up that might be. Why,
oh yeah, sure a betting site is willing to change
their odds and uh, just so to lose money just
because you know Elon Musk is cut Shut up with that.
Shut up. The surge has coincided with thirty million in

(07:42):
Trump bets from all these different it says Polymarket Accounts
and Holly Market is a conglomeration of worldwide betting markets,
like worldwide, not just US.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Calse is the only one in the United States that
is a presidential betting.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
Site that's legal here in the US. It's the only
legal political sports book.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
It's called KALs Ka Lshi.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
Follow them, give them a look.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
They've got Trump up big here in the All the
money is breaking. They even have a ticker in New
York City, like in their Times Square where it shows
you the latest odds. And I think now it's Trump's extended.
He's got a sixteen to eighteen percent more betting chance
to winning than her. It's like fifty nine of forty

(08:38):
one right now, it's it's really remarkable how much the
money's breaking for Donald Trump.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
These are these are big and looking over these these are.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Don't get cocky, don't get complacent, don't get arrogant. People listening,
you still got to get out and vote.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Let's win.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
Then let's win the popular vote. Clay Travis was talking
about how we got to win. If we win the
popular vote, it'll be too.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Big to rig. Also, I want to point out whenever
you are seeing or you hear mainstream media or legacy
media when they're giving polls. I've noticed this a lot,
especially when I hear something on the radio that in
you know, stupid newscast or something that says, you know,

(09:25):
Kamala's winning by this in this particular, Kamala's winning by
this in this particular, and then overall across the United States,
it's really close, neck and neck, and then they don't
give any numbers. Guess what that is not necessarily neck
and neck. When you hear that, you I was thinking

(09:46):
about this, I thought, you know, I wonder if I
dug down on what I was hearing, if you know,
when I heard neck and neck, if I looked at that,
it would be more than what did they say, plus
or minus the the average margin margin of error. That's it, Sarah,
thank you. I wonder if it's more than that. Whenever
they say something like that and it's in Trump's favor,

(10:08):
and now if it was in Kamala's favor, they would
be saying they would give the actual percentage. I'm starting
to you kind of have to read between the lines
when you're listening to this stuff. And I was telling
you when we were going on today, right before we
went on, and it was part of that Franklin County
grand jury indicts three on the felony charges of illegally voting,

(10:29):
that every single person is against him, every single outlet,
no matter what it is. It feels to me like
everyone and everything is against him, which means this is
going to be that much sweeter on November fourth, fifth. Wow,
it's gonna be that much sweeter. Listen here, here's what's happening.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
And I talked with a couple GOP insiders last night,
you know them, But I'm not going to say on
the air, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's all coming down to Pennsylvania.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
He's he's sacrificing Wisconsin and Nevada. To a certain extent,
he's all in Pennsylvania. Michigan would just be a bonus
at this point. If he wins Pennsylvania, it's over. He's
going to win North Carolina, He's going to win Georgia,
He's going to win Arizona. He wins Pennsylvania, it's all
she wrote. Now, his strategy in Pennsylvania going to Steelers games,

(11:31):
you know, appealing to the working black class in the
Pittsburgh West, you know, areas in the Philadelphia's area. This
is genius McDonald's working at McDonald's. It is a common
man strategy that he is implementing, and he is It's
a They will look back and they are going to

(11:52):
write a book about how to campaign to how to
read no a state, and how to campaign it to perfection,
because what Donald Trump is doing with Pennsylvania in twenty
twenty four will be political.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Trust me, I.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Went to I was Safe for Police.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Side might be a playbook for it.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Political scientists will teach this in colleges one day.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
It is making ice cream. Shee you Gradygain, which I
love is my favorite.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
I love that meme I posted on Facebook. By the way,
if you haven't a Joshua C. S seas on Facebook.
But it's a picture of him standing there at the friar,
but someone photoshopped like some sunglasses and a Maga hat
on him and said started his shift on the friar,
fixed the ice cream machine, owned the franchise before clocking out.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Mike, thanks for waiting, and what are your thoughts? Bro?

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Hey guys, how are you doing?

Speaker 1 (12:50):
Hey? Good?

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Good? I just have a question about the pole. How
can I mean, I've listened to all the polls, and
how could anybody with two weeks left to go be undecided?
You'd have to be You'd have to be living on
the moon with a BlackBerry, not going to vote for
in two weeks.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
That's really listening to your zoom MP three player.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
Right, yeah, I mean exactly.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
It's funny. I mean, listen because you know you're intelligent.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
You listen to this show ergo, you are intelligent, So
people like us, we care, we pay attention. I think
it would shock many of you to realize how many apathetic, indifferent, lazy,
and just plain stupid people there are in this country.

(13:45):
And it's hard to get through to those people to
make them care about anything other than oh my god,
I got a bid on the new Taylor swift, you know,
sign memorabilia thing like. Okay, it's stunning how many people
don't care. They really don't care as long as they're entertained.
It's it's really that bad.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
All right.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
Let me ask you another question. If if you get
a phone call on your phone scam likely, do you
ask for me?

Speaker 1 (14:15):
No? No, no?

Speaker 3 (14:17):
Who does?

Speaker 1 (14:18):
So?

Speaker 3 (14:19):
If somebody it doesn't know, I don't know, they'll call
me back. Who who? Who's the people taking these polls anyway?

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah, that makes no sense. You're right, Mike, and thanks
for the call, brother. There is there is a lot
of head scratching going on. You ever talking in your life? Yeah,
but it was, yes, but it's usually when I'm calling
a company, and then it's after the fact. But just uh,
someone called me to ask me political I don't even

(14:48):
let them through for that. So good, so quite frankly,
I'm there probably have been attempts, but I shut them down.
I don't deal with you. Yeah, I don't feel with
any of that. I was even talking to Josie about
it today and we were saying, you know, with regard
to the voting because she's like, did you vote. I'm like, yeah,
I already voted. And so then we started talking about
everything and I said, there are people that are going

(15:10):
to they just won't vote for Trump because he's an
a hole, that's what they think. And they would, well,
you're gonna pay more money at the store, You're gonna
pay more money. Interest rates are higher, you're gonna pay
more money at the pump. You're gonna pay more. And
they go, I don't care. And it's just like that
is the scariest thing ever, because she goes, would you
vote for a Democrat if they were making the economy

(15:32):
zoom and everything was all the things that you say
are the problem. And I said that is a really
good question. Hey, that's a smart question. And I said, yeah,
I don't know. I mean you would start going, look,
the things that I want are the best, the best
for my family and for the economy, which will then
translate to my family. That's a tough one, right.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
See, that's why Clinton won in ninety six. Everybody loved
Bob Doll. Bob Dole was an American hero, absolute American hero.
But was was Bill Clinton doing that? Economy was cooking
and people were like, you do do don't screw it up.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
Don't we love you, Bob.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
But we're gonna keep the Arkansas stuff that's predator in
here because my bank account looks good. That's exactly what
happened in ninety six.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Want me make this cigar disappear. That's right. I'm a magician. Yeah,
that's the That is the tough that was. I was like,
that's a stupid question, right there.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
Man.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
I was like, no, that you know, And I was like, listen,
I gotta tell you. I mean, sure, you vote on
party lines, but I will not vote for something that
I don't agree with. Even if they're a Republican and
what they stand for, I wouldn't vote for it. I
would just not vote maybe or but look, I I
gotta I gotta buy it, I gotta understand it. I

(16:49):
gotta want whatever their platform is. Listen. I stood my
ground in uh twenty twenty two.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
I voted for neither An Whaley, uh Nan Wali or
Mike Dwine because I was so upset at Mike Dwine
for his tyrant behavior and here over COVID that I
think I voted for. I think the Libertarian Party, Kandy whoever,
that was. That was how committed I was. That I
can't vote for somebody who has wrecked my friends' businesses

(17:17):
and destroyed our lives.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
That's it. That is it right there, That's it. Travgan
